What We Do
The Health and Aging Policy Fellows Program aims to create a diverse cadre of leaders who will serve as change agents in health and aging policy to ultimately improve the health care of older adults. The year-long fellowship offers a rich and unique training and enrichment program that is focused on current policy issues, communication skills development, and professional networking opportunities to provide fellows with the experience and skills necessary to help affect policy.
Program Leadership
The Health and Aging Policy Fellows Program is directed by Harold Alan Pincus, MD, Professor of Psychiatry at Columbia University; and Maureen Henry, JD, PhD. The program is also overseen by a National Advisory Board.
Funding Partners
The Health and Aging Policy Fellows Program was made possible by the generous support of The Atlantic Philanthropies. As Atlantic Philanthropies completed its funding activity, The John A. Hartford Foundation assumed a leadership role in funding our Program. We would like to thank The John A. Hartford Foundation for its commitment and vision, without which the Fellowship would not be possible. We would also like to thank West Health, who has been essential to establishing and expanding our alumni program.
